Um, so yeah... I started doing one today. It's really addictive. I don't want to do anything else now than play sudoku and surf gaia...
are you addicted to any kind of puzzle/logic problems?

Aah! Someone else who plays Sudoku! I've played about 200 of them in the past month or so...they're freaking addictive! Do you do yours on paper, or online?

I have a little book that has about 100 puzzles in it. I don't do too well though, because I can't solve even the simplest puzzle in the book. I'm afraid I'm going to erase so much that I'll make a hole in the paper. But I keep trying. I think I've just got to find the secret trick to solving them, if there even is a trick.

I Sudoku. I'm usually horrible with numbers, but I think Sudoku has more to do with patterns that actual math so I actually have a bit of fun with it. I take a stab at the one featured in the newspaper.
I can usually finish the "easy" ones.
The "average" ones drive me batty.

sweatdrop I haven't even attempted an "average" puzzle yet. Perhaps tonight I will at least finish one "easy" one.

If you're worried about erasing too much, try doing them online. www.websudoku.com is a really good site...the easy ones aren't too bad, and there's a "how am I doing?" button that'll tell you if you've got numbers out of place (and, if you set the options, it'll even tell you which numbers they are).

Oh man, Uber, I definitely think you've created a monster by telling me the link... muaha! It's a good thing I don't have homework to do tonight!
edit: Yay! I only took 14 minutes to solve an easy one online! woo-hoo! ^_^

*grin* my average time is about 11 minutes on the web... I'm going to switch back to doing them in the book because it'll be easier to multitask on gaia for me. ^_^

Hooray! That's awesome! ^_^
I know this is really just logic, but the numbers kinda intimidate me...

I love Sudoku. Sometimes I do them online at lunchtime at work. There are some I absolutely can't get, or maybe it's just that I lose patience at some point. But it's very relaxing!

I'm stuck on the one I'm doing in the book now, but I'm determined to finish it before I go on to do other things...
I have 20 open spaces left... grrrr
